Where to find Washington State gifts that are made here
The best Washington State gifts for a coffee drinker come straight from the state's roasters. They sell subscriptions, sample boxes, instant coffee from real single origins, canned cold brew, green beans for home roasting and seats at public cuppings, and all of it is roasted or run by a Washington business.
This guide covers what each roaster says it sells on its own site, checked September 27, 2026. We left out prices because they change, and we did not include anything we could not see on the roaster's own pages. Every roaster below roasts in Washington. They are grouped by where they roast.
Seattle
Capitol Hill: Victrola, Caffe Vita and Espresso Vivace
Victrola sells a rotating blend subscription, a World Traveler single origin subscription and an espresso single origin subscription. For someone local, a free public cupping at the Pike Street roastery (select Fridays at 11 am) makes a good outing to give along with a bag.
Caffe Vita sells prepaid blend subscriptions, Vita Cold Brew cans and Vita Cold Shot. Radio fans get the KEXP Blend, since Vita runs the cafe in the KEXP Gathering Space at Seattle Center. Its Coffees for a Cause line gives $2 a bag to nonprofits such as Lambert House and FareStart.
Espresso Vivace is the pick for the espresso person. It sells the Vita and Dolce espresso blends, runs a weekly Single Origin Club, ships whole bean orders the day they are roasted, and sells the Dolce Blend and its decaf green for anyone who roasts at home.
Phinney Ridge, Fremont, Ravenna and Thorndyke Avenue: Herkimer, Lighthouse, Seven and Kuma
Herkimer on Phinney Ridge sells a roaster's choice subscription. Lighthouse in Fremont has an Around the World single origin subscription and gift subscriptions, plus a Washington Wild blend sold as a coffee with a purpose. Its coffees are all roasted on a 1952 Gothot cast iron drum roaster.
Seven in Ravenna has a sample pack builder, so you can put a few of its Hawaiian blends, its 100% Kona and a single origin or two in one gift. Kuma, down by the railroad tracks on Thorndyke Avenue West, sells specialty instant coffee made from single origins, a good fit for a camper or someone who travels light.
Central District, Pioneer Square and SODO: Broadcast, Elm and Fulcrum
Broadcast names its blends for radio (Request Line, Breaker One 9, Crossfade), sells Chill Wave cold brew, and offers roaster's choice subscriptions in Wild and Balanced styles plus a decaf subscription. Elm runs the Elm Coffee Club in lengths of 3 to 12 months, and an Espresso Club and a Decaf Club too. Fulcrum sells subscriptions for each of its three house brands, Fulcrum, Silver Cup and Urban City, and a yearly Costa Rica Heritage Collection.
South Sound: Renton, Sumner, Tacoma and Olympia
Boon Boona in downtown Renton roasts only African coffees. It sells a sample box and a roasted coffee subscription, and for the home roaster it sells green Ethiopian Sidamo and Yirgacheffe. Founder Efrem Fesaha grew up in an Eritrean family that held the coffee ceremony at home, and the shop grew out of that ritual.
Dillanos in Sumner is a wholesale roastery without a cafe, but people nearby can order online and pick up at the roastery. It sells cold brew blends named Paradox and Elevation, and blends named for family members, such as Dillon's Blend and Howie's Blend.
Bluebeard in Tacoma sells a roaster's choice subscription and The Narrows Espresso Blend. Its original cafe is at 6th and State, and the roastery cafe on South Tacoma Way sits in a rebuilt 100 year old furniture showroom.
Olympia Coffee sells a coffee of the month subscription and Bottomless subscriptions, sells its Big Truck blend as instant coffee, and offers rare lots including Gesha coffees under the Oliver's Custom Coffee name. It also runs home barista classes and public cuppings on the first Friday of the month at the downtown Olympia roastery.
North Sound: Burlington and Bellingham
Camber in Bellingham sells gift subscriptions of 3, 6 or 12 months, a rotating single origin subscription and sample boxes of blends and single origins. It has made special release coffees with the band Death Cab for Cutie, and each year it runs an Artist Series of coffees with a visual artist.
Zoka roasts in Bellingham with a four person team and sells seasonal blends (the Autumn Blend 2026 was in its shop when we checked) along with dark roast, single origin, blend and roaster's choice subscriptions. Its Tangletown blend is named for the Green Lake neighborhood of its first cafe, a good gift for anyone who lived there.
Fidalgo in Burlington sells gift subscriptions and a seasonal Tulip Festival Blend, which makes a Skagit Valley gift in a bag. Its Underground Coffee is roasted and packed by people re-entering the workforce, and its retail shop at the roastery is open Monday to Friday, 10 am to 3 pm.
Spokane
Indaba is the Spokane pick. It sells the Indaba Coffee Club subscription, Cliff Jumper canned cold brew, a White Elephant white coffee and green coffee for home roasters. The Lilac City Blend takes Spokane's nickname and the High Drive and Bowl and Pitcher blends take local place names, so a bag says Spokane before anyone opens it.
Picks by the person you are buying for
- Someone who moved away: a subscription from the roaster in their old neighborhood, such as Herkimer for Phinney Ridge, Bluebeard for Tacoma or Indaba for Spokane.
- The home roaster: green beans from Boon Boona, Indaba or Espresso Vivace.
- The camper: instant coffee from Olympia Coffee or Kuma.
- The music fan: Caffe Vita's KEXP Blend, or a look at Camber's shop for its band collaboration coffees.
- The espresso person: Vivace's Vita and Dolce blends.
- The person who wants to taste around: a sample box from Boon Boona or Camber, or Seven's sample pack builder.
Every one of these is a Washington business with Washington staff. Buying a gift from them is the simplest way to keep them roasting; why local roasters matter puts names to that.
